| Microsoft DirectX 9.0 |
The DSCBUFFERDESC structure describes a capture buffer. It is used by the IDirectSoundCapture8::CreateCaptureBuffer method and by the DirectSoundFullDuplexCreate8 function.
An earlier version of this structure, DSCBUFFERDESC1, is maintained in Dsound.h for compatibility with DirectX 7 and earlier.
Syntax
typedef struct {
DWORD dwSize;
DWORD dwFlags;
DWORD dwBufferBytes;
DWORD dwReserved;
LPWAVEFORMATEX lpwfxFormat;
DWORD dwFXCount;
LPDSCEFFECTDESC lpDSCFXDesc;
} DSCBUFFERDESC, *LPDSCBUFFERDESC;
typedef const DSCBUFFERDESC *LPCDSCBUFFERDESC;
Members
dwSize
Size of the structure, in bytes. This member must be initialized before the structure is used.
dwFlags
Specifies device capabilities. Can be zero, or one or more of the flags shown in the following table.
| Value | Description |
| DSCBCAPS_CTRLFX | The buffer supports effects. See Remarks. |
| DSCBCAPS_WAVEMAPPED | The Win32 wave mapper will be used for formats not supported by the device. |
dwBufferBytes
Size of capture buffer to create, in bytes.
dwReserved
Reserved for future use.
lpwfxFormat
Pointer to a WAVEFORMATEX structure containing the format in which to capture the data.
dwFXCount
Number of elements in the array pointed to by lpDSCFXDesc. Must be zero unless DSCBCAPS_CTRLFX is present in dwFlags.
lpDSCFXDesc
Address of an array of DSCEFFECTDESC structures that describe effects supported by hardware for the buffer. User-mode
Remarks
The DSCBCAPS_CTRLFX flag is supported only on buffers created by an object of class CLSID_DirectSoundCapture8. If the IDirectSoundCapture8 interface was obtained from the DirectSoundCaptureCreate8 function, this flag is supported; if it was obtained from the earlier DirectSoundCaptureCreate function, it is not supported.
Capture effects require Microsoft® Windows® XP.
